What charger comes with the Y?

[SandDune]

Yup, unfortunately it does. I say unfortunately because I already ordered one so now I have 2.

If you get the nem 14-50 adaptor, how long is it including the gen 2 cable?

also can you control when this cable charges your car? I.e. if I plug in at 6pm, but don’t want to charge until electricity rate is cheaper at night?

Any Tesla can be set to a scheduled start time when charging from any AC source using the center screen.

There’s a departure time mode now as well, but that has been buggy in the past, including charging past the set maximum when you don’t leave sometimes. I don’t know if it has been fixed yet because I stopped using it.

The cable is 20 ft long. The standard Tesla 14-50 adapter adds about 9.5" inches once plugged in. Interestingly, it has the ground pin at the top, so it would plug in upside down in a typical surface mount 14-50 outlet orientation.

14-50R is usually installed with ground pin up.

You are correct, however I was only talking about the typical surface mount outlet, not the flush one.

I realize this is an old thread so I am asking again. Does the Model Y still come with a J1772 adapter? I just installed a Wallbox Pulsar Plus charger. I ask because I want to be able to charge both my (yet to be delivered) Model Y and my daughter's Nissan Leaf off the Wallbox pulsar. My EDD is October-November and I don't want to be caught without it after the car arrives. Thanks in advance.

Yes, every new Tesla vehicle comes with a Tesla SAE J1772 adapter. If you want to have a spare/second J1772 adapter these are available for $95 on the Tesla store web site. You can also purchase a 3rd-party J1772 adapter for slightly less than the Tesla price.

That was fast! Thanks jcanoe. I think after the car arrives, I will order a spare. I may need one to charge from the level 2 chargers at work. Might be a good idea to leave one in the car, and order a spare for home.

I have two of the J1772 adapters. I keep one in my Model Y, the other stays at home connected to my AmazingE Fast 32A Level 2 EVSE.

Gonna be the first, the CHARGER is built into the car, the box you are referring to is called the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment). It’s essentially a BIG safety device that determines when it’s safe to release the electricity to the car.

Thanks Tom for your clarification. Sadly, that nomenclature battle was lost LONG ago.

Can anyone confirm that the J1772 came with the MY?

I got a J1772 adapter with my model Y in July, 2020

True, so true.
